Nucleus Definition and 423 Threads

nuCLEus is a proposed mixed-used development complex planned for the Gateway District of downtown Cleveland, Ohio, United States. The project won unanimous approval from the Cleveland Planning Commission in November 2014, and recently received schematic design approval from the City of Cleveland in March 2019 after a thoughtful redesign to fit the city's growing population and needs in downtown Cleveland.Robert L. Stark of Cleveland-based Stark Enterprises is the lead developer on the nuCLEus.
The $300M mixed-use project will encompass approximately two million square feet in the heart of the city at the intersection between East Fourth Street, Prospect Avenue and Huron Road, connecting many of the venues in the Central Business District.
nuCLEus will serve as a mixed-use, vertically integrated space with a mix of Class A office space, retail, restaurants and residential living divided between two distinct, 24 floor towers.

    B Why Do Measured Nuclear Radii Differ from Predicted Values?

    I have seen numerous sources for radii of atomic nuclii of various elements. One of the most common is the simple equation r=1.2 fm×A⅓, which makes sense if the nuclear density is constant for all elements and all isotopes. However, I've also found a table of measured nuclear charge radii that...

    Spin of a nucleus within an external magnetic field.

    When a nucleus is placed inside an external magnetic field, it aligns itself parallel to the field, as that is the most stable position for it to be in. In more technical terms: it acquires an alpha spin. When you shine radio waves at this nucleus, it absorbs energy and flips over anti-parallel...

    A Nuclear and Atomic energy levels

    I've noticed that in the Shell Model of the nucleus, the order of the energy levels is 1s, 1p3/2, 1p1/2, etc. While in the atomic energy levels it goes 1S 2S 2P, ... But they still take the same amount of particles for each level in both the atomic and nucleus. Am I missing something here? Or...

    B What does the 'space' inside an atom consist of?

    Atoms make up all the material stuff around us, but most of an atom is empty space. The nucleus at the centre of an atom (99.95 percent of its mass) is orbited by tiny electrons (only 0.05 percent or less of the overall atomic mass). And as you've probably heard, an analogy is to think of the...

    I I want to read about the electron nucleus interaction

    A Pair production without nucleus

    As far as I'm aware, pair production always involves the initial energetic photon interacting with another body (e.g. nucleus) to conserve momentum when creating the matter/antimatter products (e.g. electron and positron).

    I 1s orbital overlaps with the nucleus, why don't they interact?

    Granted, the size difference between a hydrogen atom's electron cloud and its nucleus is a factor of one million (~1Å vs ~10^-6Å), but that's still a significant amount of overlap that, I would think, would trigger the occasional interaction.

    Can Non-Strange Particles Be Produced in Pairs?
